Chapter 014 Making Hunting Weapons
Skill upgrade?
Why so fast?
Bifang was stunned. He was not surprised why his skills upgraded by themselves, but he was surprised at how fast the upgrade was.
Skills are based on the host's abilities. As the host's abilities improve, his level will naturally increase as well. Otherwise, where would so many built-in skills come from?
Aren’t they all brought from your previous life?
But why is it upgrading so quickly?
Green skills cannot be upgraded so easily, considering that he only hiked for a day yesterday.
After frowning and thinking for a long time, Bi Fang finally guessed the answer.
It should be the credit of the blue skill [Wilderness Survival] and the purple skill [Advanced Yoga]!
[Wild Survival] itself comes with certain hiking skills, which may not be as comprehensive as [Cross-country Hiking] taken out separately, but the skills and experience in some aspects may be better.
[Advanced Yoga] is also good at adjusting the body's balance. The combination of the two allows [Cross-country Hiking] to be upgraded so quickly.
No wonder, Bifang nodded.
After realizing this, he stopped worrying about it and came back to greet the audience in the live broadcast room.
Counting the days, today should be Saturday, and it's around seven or eight o'clock now. Logically, there shouldn't be many people here, but in just a few moments, the number of people has exceeded double digits.
Bifang greeted him while packing his things.
"Good morning!"
【Good morning!】
【Lao Fang, are you just starting out? 】
[Wow, he slept from 9 o'clock last night to 8 o'clock this morning? He slept so soundly? I even suspected that Fang Shen was in the Wilderness Hotel.]
[I saw Shark posting early in the morning, and thought the girl got up early to dance, but it turned out to be Lao Fang. The white chicken moved, what bad luck! ]
Bifang pretended to be very sorry and said: "That's such a pity."
"But back to the topic. Today is the second day of my wilderness survival. After a full night's rest, I feel that my spirit has recovered, but my body is still hungry. Moreover, I haven't drunk a drop of water from yesterday to today. It will be troublesome if I can't find a river today."
[It feels so difficult to survive in the wilderness]
[What is it? I feel the same way, so I took a big bite of the cracker with tears in my eyes. Mm, it still tastes the same. It’s delicious! ]
[That’s enough, do you have any sympathy?]
[Send some fish balls as a token of appreciation]
"Thank you for your concern, but the situation is not that serious yet, and I am sure I can find water today!"
"But before we go, we still have some things to deal with."
Bifang squatted beside the extinguished fire, felt it with his hands, and when he felt that the fire had cooled down, he picked up a few pieces of charcoal and put them into his backpack.
"Without matches or flint, it is actually necessary to move the fire. We can collect some of the burnt charcoal when it cools down sufficiently, so that we can use it to light a fire at the next location."
"Then, check if there are any remaining sparks and extinguish them completely to avoid causing a fire. If you have water, it is best to water it directly until there is no smoke rising, but we don't have it, so we fill it with soil."
Bifang covered the place where the fire was burning with soil, and then scattered fallen leaves on it to make it blend in with the surrounding environment.
After some simple arrangements, most of the original traces of the fire were immediately eliminated.
"It's important to leave the natural beauty of the area intact when we leave, which means removing any visible traces of the fire when we're done."
"This way, when future travelers come to this place, it will be pristine again."
[Fang Shen really loves nature]
[Yes, other outdoor anchors always leave garbage behind when they climb a mountain. Compared with Fang Shen, the difference is obvious.]
Seeing that the live broadcast room was full of praise again, Bifang was stunned for a moment and warned: "Everyone, please don't draw hatred to me. I am a quality anchor and my audience are all quality audiences."
It is impossible to stop fans from inciting hatred, but Bifang still wants to do its best to reduce this phenomenon and nip it in the bud.
[Hahaha, why is it so funny coming from Fang Shen's mouth? ]
【I understand. I understand.】
Black lines appeared on Bifang's face. He knew he couldn't pull himself back, so he simply ignored it, determined the direction, picked up his bag and set off.
As the saying goes, water flows to lower places. In a forest environment, if you follow the overall terrain trend downwards, you will most likely find a water source.
"Water, fire, and shelter are the three elements of wilderness survival, especially water. On average, a person can survive without water for about three days. This situation will also be affected by internal factors such as temperature, humidity, and personal health. For example, people who exercise vigorously in a dry and hot environment will die of dehydration within a few hours."
[Coach, I know this! ]
[So, Fang Shen hasn't had any water for more than a day, right? ]
"Yes, from yesterday noon till now." Bifang nodded without denying, "That's why I have to set out early in the morning to find water. Besides, we can try to make weapons."
【arms?】
[Wow! Is it a hunting bow and spear? ]
[How to make this? ]
When the audience heard that Bifang was going to make weapons, they seemed to be excited and were frantically posting comments.
"People need water, and animals are no exception. The chances of encountering animals near a water source are greater. Having a weapon will make it much easier, whether for self-defense or hunting. If we are lucky, maybe we can not only find a water source this time, but also catch prey."
"When it comes to making weapons in the wild, you definitely have to adjust your mind from the 21st century to primitive times. Think of cavemen. For thousands of years, people used weapons and tools made by hand from natural resources to protect themselves and feed themselves. If you were stranded in the wild with nothing but the shirt you were wearing, you would also need to make weapons from wild materials."
"In the wild, especially in the forest, the best material for making weapons is undoubtedly flint! This is an extremely hard siliceous rock, and its broken edges are as sharp as a knife blade."
[Is it true? Sharper than a knife? 】
[I seem to have heard that flint can be used to make fire? ]
"Yes, it is precisely because flint is extremely hard and can produce sparks when it strikes each other, and can also be used to make fire. Moreover, flint is resistant to weathering and chemicals, so we only need to search on freshwater coasts or riverbeds or other places with more rocks."
Bifang walked and stopped, and suddenly, he took a quick step forward, picked up a few darker stones from a pile of gray rocks, and held them high.
"Haha, look everyone, this is flint. Flint is mostly black or dark gray. This is the only physical difference between flint and other rocks. Flint does not have a specific identifying color, but it is usually combined into a number of different colors, depending on the other minerals."
After finding the flint, Bifang couldn't wait to start making weapons. Having a good weapon is really important when surviving in the wilderness.
However, even though he talked a lot, many viewers still couldn't see what was so great about these broken stones.
